About the Journal

Tropical Journal of Drug Research is an international peer-reviewed journal with expedited processing times presenting the very latest research results related to novel and established drug molecules and the evaluation of new drug development. A key focus of the publication is translational medicine and the application of biological discoveries in the development of drugs for use in the clinical environment. Articles and experimental data from across the field of drug research address not only the issue of drug discovery, but also the statistical methods for evaluating results from experimental investigations and clinical trials.

Publishing twelve times a year, Tropical Journal of Drug Research  includes original research articles and modelling approaches as well as reviews, commentaries and short communications in the following areas:

Medicinal chemistry and drug formulations
Biochemistry and molecular biology
Clinical and experimental pharmacology
Drug interactions
Pharmacodynamics
Pharmacokinetics and systems pharmacology
Toxicology, preclinical safety and early development
Analytics applied to clinical trials
Drug Formation
Drug design 
Molecular targets of drugs
Clinical Pharmacy/Pharmacy Practice
